Patient Reviews
May 02, 2025
While Dr. Turaga is clearly knowledgeable in her field, I found her communication style to be consistently dismissive and disrespectful toward both patients and staff. Medical expertise is essential, but so is the ability to treat others with professionalism and basic courtesy. A collaborative, respectful environment is crucial in healthcare, and I hope Dr. Turaga can reflect on how her interactions impact the morale and effectiveness of the entire care team. However, the nurses and techs were wonderful - keep it up!

Through my wife's health issues over the last several months Dr. Turaga has restored our faith in modern medicine. Her passion for her patients well being and successful healing is unparalleled. Her ability to take a big picture look at ALL ailments Iin regards to how she designs your personal treatment is amazing. Dr. Turaga also only recommends the best when it comes to Doctors in other fields that she doesn't practice in. She has a great sense of humor as well.
